Today my SAGA reread brought me back to the Tickle Trunk. Which, I‘ll remind you, I MET ONCE.
Yeah. That‘s right. I stood right in front of the Tickle Trunk. I TOUCHED IT. That HAPPENED.
Everyone who was a small Canadian child in the late 80s/early 90s is all, “OMG!!!”
Everyone else is all, “The hell does that even mean?”
I hope Fiona Staples throws Ananas into the mix someday, too, to round out the Canadian Childhood References.

Singout Wow! I just posted the Friendly Giant intro on FB today for an American/Canadian friend who was sharing dollhouse photos and not getting the Rusty and Jerome jokes. 1d
xicanti @Singout all these shows that loom so large! The Friendly Giant stopped making new episodes before my TV years so I might‘ve had to reach for Rusty and Jerome, but I definitely would‘ve recognized the man himself. 1d
